An Evening with Priscilla Presley 

From the outside, life at Graceland looked like a gilded, glamorous and untouchable dream. But behind closed doors, Priscilla Presley was navigating a world that left little room for her own identity. Married at 21 and surrounded by Elvis’s ever-present entourage, she began to realise that the only way to survive was to step away from a life the world envied.

In this deeply personal conversation, drawn from her forthcoming memoir Softly, As I Leave You, Priscilla will reflect on what it took to leave, what she lost in the process and what she ultimately found: strength, purpose and a life beyond the legend.

She shares the tender dynamic that emerged between herself and Elvis after their separation, her years as a single mother and how she reinvented herself after Elvis’s passing. Audiences will also hear stories from her acclaimed acting career in Dallas and The Naked Gun, her visionary transformation of Graceland into a global landmark and her lifelong commitment to preserving Elvis’s legacy.
